Regional equity, tight timeline re-emerge as prime concerns over $400 million bond bill for new Holyoke Soldiers’ Home Updated Apr 05, 3:23 PM; Posted Apr 05, 2:00 PM Facebook Share A joint legislative committee on capital expenditures is considering the $400 million bond bill to pay for the construction of a new Holyoke Soldiers’ Home, slated for completion in 2026. Monday’s hearing before the Joint Committee on Bonding, Capital Expenditures and State Assets is the second hurdle to push the bill through ahead of a critical deadline to secure up to $260 million in federal dollars for the project. The bill cleared the Joint Committee on State Administration and Regulatory Oversight last month, but needs to emerge favorably from this committee and the Ways and Means Committee before debate in the full House and Senate. The bill has 10 days pass before April 15, to satisfy the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs’ deadline to secure a 65% reimbursement.
